About the event
Did you know you can find fossils just by walking through downtown? Learn this and more with Andy Connolly, educator at the Kansas Geological Survey, who will talk about the geology of Douglas County. This presentation will cover ancient oceans, glaciers, and ice age mammals (and a little bit of architecture to boot). You’ll also get tips where to find fossils and locate prominent geological features in our community.
This event will be held in-person and online on the Watkins Museum Facebook and YouTube.
